Weekend Multitouch Progress
I got a ton of stuff done on my screen this weekend. For one, I ditched the rickety PVC stand I had been using in favor of a much nicer looking television stand someone was throwing away. I also swapped out the crappy sanded plastic diffuser I was using in favor of the Rosco Grey projection screen. Overall it looks and functions great. I will post some pics and video as soon as I am able to get them off my camera. The rosco really does bock out a lot of background IR. It needs to be attached very closely to the acrylic though, or it will block out your finger presses.
I also finished up a few test applications in Flash (AS3). Here is a small preview - Keep in mind these are all playing back the same finger press data and the photo one has some randomness to it, so the finger presses may not make sense:
Photo App
Paint App
Ripples
Flash 9 Required. The ripples app is currently too slow to run on the 2 ghz machine I'm running my table off of. I'm gonna see if i can optimize it or modify it.

awesome, awesome, awesome! It's wonderful to see the results of your tinkerings and I can't wait to see the picture you mentioned you're gonna post here (so please do, hehe).
I'm developing a touch-screen enabled application in WPF. I think you should look at WPF instead of flash. It is much more powerful and you can use any kind of window DLL and even write your own in C#.
I really want to build an FTIR along with touchlib! (we're using resistive right now) I'm looking forward to your progress.
I'd like to, but I can't really afford to buy it ATM. I'm interested in seeing if the performance is better and also playing with the 3d stuff.
One nice thing about flash is that it's cross platform (flash 9 even runs on linux).
nice stuff going on white, you put alot of effort in it, looks awesome
